Thanks to support from listeners like you.

Welcome to the night of it's only just don't have to know how to ever since and since we've got you live. Welcome to Sizzy Larson Live. Always so honored to get to spend this time with you.

In fact, I look forward to bringing you conversations every single day that hopefully inspire you in your faith walk,

that deepen your understanding of God's Word and that

heightens your awareness of his very real presence in your life. Well, if you've been listening

through the weeks, you know that every Friday I've been devoting a whole show to just content

from my book, Prepare Him Room, and just some personal stories that aren't in the book, and just really

an effort to prepare Him Room in our hearts as we head into

the holiday season. And here we are on the Friday before Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.

And you're probably very busy getting ready, making all the preparations. And I pray in the

meantime that the Lord just gives you a presence of mind to be so present with him that you see

where he is. You see what he's

doing and how he's moving in your midst. You know, I remember years ago what leader I spoke to,

but he talked about doing really hard evangelistic work in tough areas of the world. And they would

often send missionaries a year in advance to pray through the villages, just pray and prepare the soil,

so to speak. And then when it came time to send their missionaries, they were instructed to find

the people of peace. Find the people of peace and start there. And it's just someone who's got a

tender and open heart. And I'm praying this season, The Lord shows you your people of peace. Maybe you have

this, your eye on your prodigal, your eye on somebody, that you're just waiting and wanting God to

change things. And you know, this, that healing is just not linear. It's just not a straight line.

There are twists and turns to this journey because there are people that God wants you to meet
